TARTLE PBC is a data exchange company whose consumer-facing product, DataVault, allows individuals ("Sellers") to aggregate their personal data manually or via third-party integrations, receive bids from interested companies ("Buyers"), and approve sales under a data-use license, with consent tracked via cryptographic signature and payouts made via PayPal or a virtual currency wallet. For enterprise clients, TARTLE for Business provides DataVault Connect (letting platforms empower their users to sell data while sharing revenue), the Real Intelligence API (real-time, ethically sourced consumer data for AI model training), and a peer-to-peer Data Marketplace. TARTLE positions itself as a data processor rather than controller, and highlights SOC2 Type I, GDPR, and CCPA compliance. Its clients range from individual data sellers worldwide to companies and AI developers seeking consented, transparent consumer data.
